Mother Rock Force Celeste Semillon
Country: South Africa
Region: Swartland
Grapes: Semillon
Vintage: 2022
Johan Meyer is a leading light in South Africa's fast-growing natural wine scene, and together with like minded growers Testalonga and Intellego, has built a movement from the ground up in Swartland working with the old bush vines that thrive in this arid landscape.
This is his Semillon, a wonderfully textural example of this grape at a price point that gives amazing value. From 20 year old dry farmed bush vines, it’s fresh and saline and full of verve, with lemon sherbet and an explosive acid-line.
